Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Fable 2 is the anticipated sequel to the popular original that sold more than 3 million copies. Created by famed game designer Peter Molyneux, Fable 2 for Xbox 360 features an epic story that picks up 500 years after the first game. It offers an open world environment giving players a massive amount of freedom to explore and play as they please, with every decision made contributing to the game itself.
Fable 2 provides players with a truly immersive experience where a virtually limitless number of choices can be made, all of which have their own consequences, making each game unique. When you start the game, you choose either to play the role of a boy or girl, and depending on your choices, the hero will grow up to be tall or short, good or evil. Players can get married and have children; female player characters will become pregnant, which will then be reflected by their physical appearance. Early in the game, players are presented with a stray dog for a best friend, who will need to be fed and loved, and will accompany the player throughout his or her life. Depending on the player, the dog will change appearance and assist him or her in various ways, such as alerting of impending dangers and attacking enemies. Players inhabit the world of Albion and are free to roam the land to as they please. Players can use different expressions to communicate with others, such as taunting and laughing, and even belching or farting. As the players grow, so does Albion, reflecting the choices that were made earlier in the game. Every house, hut, castle, and dungeon can be purchased if the player wishes. Players can buy up all the land in a town and can become mayor, king, and even emperor of the entire land. Fable 2 presents a dynamic and free-roaming world that doesn't demand a player to take any one set path. At the same time, players seeking a plot line will find an epic story and quest that they can follow if they wish, along with many side adventures. Fight Using Different Weapons and Magic Fable 2 introduces a new combat system that allows for mastery of hand weapons, such as swords, long range weapons such as cross-bows and guns, and, of course, magic. Players improve at each discipline with time, and can combine different combat styles when they fight. Other advanced design features include tactical positional advantages that can bring new strategic elements into combat. Bring Other Players into Your World Fable 2 has a multiplayer mode that allows you to bring other players into your own world. Consistent with the rest of the game, the actions of these other players can be permanent and affect your world. You can explore and fight together with these other players, share treasures, and even fight each other. Note: Fable 2 will not ship with Online Co-op mode. An update with this functionality is rumored to be released shortly after the launch of the game. Xbox LIVE Arcade Mini-Games Gamers can play minigames through Xbox LIVE Arcade and earn currency that can be used in Fable 2 to purchase weapons, armor, and other items for the hero. Fable 2 is rated M for having mature content that may be suitable for persons ages 17 and older.    Depending on your choices, the protagonist can turn out wildly different -- male, female, good, evil, and more. Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - A Disappointment from the OriginalI like many was excitedly counting down to the release of fable 2, I was a huge fable fan and play through the game several times to complete every quest and get every weapons. So when fable 2 was released I was excited to give it a try, Unfortunately I found this game far less entertaining and challenging compared to the original. The same basic style of game is there, but it is the things that they changed that I didn't like, the major one is that you cant die in the game. It takes away all the challenge of the game, because no matter what enemy you face if you keep at it you'll beat them, if you run out of health you just get knocked out and bounce right back to keep fighting which eventually got pretty boring. The next thing ... Read More: Rating: - Fable 2 or Fable 1? IMO: When a sequel is launched, there are a few important criteria that must be met for it to be successful. 1. Does the gameplay improve? 2. Does the story continue into new and interesting territory? 3. Do the graphics improve? 4. Are the throwbacks from the first game improved by a large amount? 5. Do I feel continuity from the old game and a desire to replay it? My answers to these questions: 1. Slightly... fable 1 had a very odd interface about casting "Will" spells and it required a high degree of human dexterity to successfully quickly cast spells intermingled with other attacks. Fable2 solves some of these problems by allowing users to bind a spell to the "B" button so that you ... Read More: Rating:  - Fun.ok first of this game is great, with graphic and gameplay, but its sort of short and not much to do after the story and it gets repetitive after sometime, but can't wait for the new DLCs (Downloadable Content). Rating:  - Yup, same glitch problems as everyone elseI was fortunate enough to run into two of the glitches. First was while talking to the monk in Oakfield, losing me about 10 hours of playtime and the second was after re-beating the contest in wraithmarch. Only buy this one if your blood pressure levels are normal and you have no pre-existing medical conditions. I suggest doing something less stressfull like taking a drive through rush-hour traffic on a long weekend afternoon with your mother in law. Rating:  - Fun!We got Fable II for our son's birthday present & we all have characters now! The scenery is beautiful, lots of freedom to run around & find things, you can swim in this one.You can't jump unless it has a signal to allow you but you don't really need to. We like to go through good & then bad so we'll all play it again at least once more. Lots of options to change the characters. Lots of Fun! |
